This is the Sindhi style fried brinjals. We usually serve them with dal chawal and fote bhugi khichnee as an accompaniment. Select the medium sized brinjals. Adjust the spices as per your liking.
Ingredients:
Brijals .... 6 or as needed
Oil ........ for frying
Salt .... as needed
Red chilli powder .. 1/4 tsp
Cumin powder ....... 1/4 tsp
Coriander powder .. 1/4 tsp
Amchoor powder .... 1/4 tsp
Method:
Slice the brinjals lengthwise into two. Make cuts on it as shown in the image.
Immerse them in salt water until you fry them.
Heat oil in a pan. Fry the brinjals on medium flame.
Turn the sides pressing them lightly so that the inside gets cooked well.
When they are nice and crispy remove them in a plate. Sprinkle the spice powders on top.
this looks similar to begun bhaja (Bengali style fry) but the procedure is different...
